...colder and windier conditions, Shore fired a 79 after failing to recover from several early bogeys. Shore went on to finish in seventh place along with Mayer, who managed a second-round 75 to card a two-day 147. Though trailing by three strokes after the first day, Hartford rode a Day 2 team score of 297 to victory. Given that average scores did not vary wildly between Rounds 1 and 2, Harvard was left wondering what led to the lower scores on Day 2. But the Crimson seems unable to point to specific areas of the game in need...

As a member of the South African Defense Force in 1979, I rode in vehicles shaped exactly how you described.

Paul's positions are backed by a legislative career that spans 30 years. If conservatives want a genuine conservative candidate again, they need look no further than Paul. Chris Coggins, MACON...
...These are gloomy and uncertain days for conservatives, who - except for the eight-year Clinton interregnum - have dominated political power and thought in this country since Reagan rode in from the West. Their tradition goes back even further, to Founding Fathers who believed that people should do things for themselves and who shook off a monarchy in their conviction that Big Government is more to be feared than encouraged. The Boston Tea Party, as Reagan used to point out, was an antitax initiative...
